Abstract: A method, an apparatus and a medium for optimizing allocation of switching resources in the polymorphic network. The method selects the ASIC switching chip, FPGA and PPK software switching on the polymorphic network element based on machine learning, and specifically comprises the following steps: manually pre-configuring, formulating basic rules for polymorphic software and hardware co-processing; offline learning, designing training configuration in the offline learning stage to capture different switching resource usage variables, running experiments to generate the original data of a training classifier, and using the generated performance indices to train the model offline; and online reasoning, obtaining switching resource allocation advises, and updating modality codes according to the switching resource allocation advises.

Abstract: A synchronous rectifier controller method is provided for controlling the on and off periods of a synchronous rectifier (SR) switch transistor in a switching power converter. The method includes a first step of monitoring an unfiltered to control whether the SR switch transistor is turned on during a first part of a power switch cycle. The method also includes a second step of monitoring a filtered SR switch signal to control whether the SR switch is turned on during a remaining second part of the power switch cycle.

Abstract: A synchronous rectifier controller for controlling the on and off periods of a synchronous rectifier switch transistor in a switching power converter. In particular, the synchronous rectifier controller is configured to adaptively enable and disable a deglitch filter for filtering a turn-on signal for the synchronous rectifier switch transistor. In this fashion, the synchronous rectifier switch transistor may be switched on more rapidly during periods when the deglitch filter is disabled for greater efficiency yet the switching power converter is protected by the deglitch filter when it is not disabled.

Abstract: A switching power converter may include a power switch coupled to a primary winding of a transformer, and a primary controller configured to turn on and off the power switch, a synchronous rectifier switch coupled to a secondary winding of a transformer, and a synchronous rectifier controller configured to turn on and off the synchronous rectifier switch. The synchronous rectifier controller may monitor a voltage across the synchronous rectifier switch. The synchronous rectifier controller may determine a period of a resonant oscillation of the voltage across the synchronous rectifier switch following at least one cycling off of the synchronous rectifier switch. The synchronous rectifier controller may adjust the minimum off-time period for the synchronous rectifier switch based on the period of the resonant oscillation. The synchronous rectifier controller may adaptively adjust a minimum off-time period for the synchronous rectifier switch.
